What does the “La carte de membre” meme mean?

A membership card stands for belonging to a circle, with its perks. The line “Emperor Alkpote is in fidelity” plays on the grandiose persona of a rapper who presents himself as a sovereign, speaking of loyalty with theatrical seriousness. People use it to salute a faithful member of a group, a regular at a spot or a friend who is always there. The tone is deadpan, somewhere between ironic grandeur and crew spirit.
